“Dark the Night, with breath all flowers,
And tender broken voice that fills
With ravishment the listening hours,--
Whisperings, wooings,

In low-toned rhythm that love's aching stills!

Yet is she bright,
For in her dark she brings the mystic star,
Trembling yet strong, as is the voice of love,
From some unknown afar.”
George Eliot (pseudonym of Mary Ann Evans Cross) Quotes Source: The Spanish Gypsy (bk. I, song)
